What is the speed of the package

Reference no: EM13287383

A relief airplane is delivering a food package to a group of people stranded on a very small island. The island is too small for the plane to land on, and the only way to deliver the package is by dropping it. The airplane flies horizontally with constant speed of 290 mph at an altitude of 750m . For all parts, assume that the "island" refers to the point at a distance from the point at which the package is released, D. Ignore the height of this point above sea level. Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is = 9.80m/s^2. t=2.4sec D=1600m v_0=290mph What is the speed of the package when it hits the ground in mph?
